The next morning, Li Su regretted his decision when he woke up. He never expected that Dong Qing was still a virgin after being married for so long?

Dong Qing also regretted it. He had done such a thing last night in the heat of the moment. How was he going to explain it to Fengxian in the future?

Li Su glanced at the naked woman beside him through the bright light from outside, and hurried out of the hut. As he put on his clothes, he said, "I don't know if there are any bandits chasing us along the way. We can't take the main road anymore. I plan to go directly through the Taihang Mountains. It's slower, but it's safer."

As he spoke, he picked up Dong Qing's dried clothes and warmed them against his chest, then stuffed them inside and said, "Put on your clothes first. I'll go see if there are any villages nearby and get some food and supplies."

He now only has the sword he carries with him. Although he can survive by hunting, he absolutely cannot do without something to make a fire. The journey to Luoyang is still nearly half a month away, and he cannot be without salt.

"Well, go quickly and come back soon!" Dong Qing replied in a low voice from inside.

After a while, Li Su came back with a large bag. He tied the bag to his chest, glanced at Dong Qing's injured right leg, and squatted down. "I'll carry you."

Having done the most intimate things, Dong Qing stopped being pretentious and climbed onto his back, and the two of them walked towards the Taihang Mountains.

At the same time, Zhang Mo also received the message sent by Du Fei on a flying eagle.

According to the experience she gained from watching TV dramas in her previous life, people who fall into water or fall off a cliff generally will not die. If Li Su comes back alive, she will not be able to hide this from Lu Bu, so Zhang Mo has to go and confess to him.

"You sent people to rob and kill Dong Qing and Zi Zheng? Why?" After hearing what Zhang Mo said, Lu Bu was extremely surprised.

"If I said it was because I was afraid she would come back and snatch you from me, would you believe me?"

Lu Bu naturally didn't believe that she would make a big fuss over a private affair. She knew that Zi Zheng was one of her own and she had shown mercy to him in Beimang Mountain. If he hadn't angered her this time, she would never have killed him.

Thinking of Dong Qing's unruly character, Lu Bu had a premonition, but still asked, "What did he do?"

Zhang Mo calmly recounted, "He led his men to burn down my earth building and killed more than a hundred of my men. Ah Chang also died at his hands. He even spared no one but the farmers working in the fields."

"Because of this, you killed him?"

Lü Bu wasn't one to hide his emotions. Hearing Zhang Mo kill his own brothers just because some of his men had died, he couldn't help but feel unhappy and his tone turned harsh. "Besides, he didn't know the building was yours, nor did he know about our relationship. He and I grew up together, and you've really gone too far."

"He is your brother, and Achang is also my man. Besides, the lives of his subordinates are not their lives? Even if he doesn't know that the Tulou is mine, can he lead his troops to kill innocent people like this?" Zhang Mo's tone became unfriendly.

"He was just following orders. He can't be blamed for this."

Zhang Mo sneered, "Yes, I will obey the orders of the General's wife. You Xiliang soldiers are just like that by nature. Ordinary people's lives are nothing to you. Burning, killing, and looting are commonplace to you."

Lu Bu hurriedly said, "That's not what I meant. You should at least let me know before you do it. I don't have many people around me who can be used. I'm not blaming you. This is all my fault. I should have explained it clearly to Zi Zheng before he left."

"If I had told you first, would you have agreed?"

Lu Bu choked. He would definitely not agree, but now that things had come to this, it was pointless to argue with her. It would only add to the quarrel. Lu Bu softened his tone and said, "If this happens again in the future, tell me if that person really deserves to die. You don't need to do it yourself. I will help you find out about him."

After Lu Bu said this, Zhang Mo calmed down and said, "They both fell into the water, and we don't know whether they are dead or alive. You and I are engaged now. If Dong Qing is not dead, she will definitely come to the palace to cause trouble when she returns. With her father's current power, can you protect me?"

Zhang Mo looked up at him. If Lu Bu could not protect her, she could only be an unfilial daughter and forcibly take her father and his family back to Jinyang. As for this man, whoever wanted him could take him.

Lu Bu realized that this was the big problem. In the past, when Dong Zhuo was only the Marquis of Yaxiang, Dong Qing was already so arrogant and domineering. Now Dong Zhuo holds the power of life and death, and is extremely fond of Dong Qing. It can be seen from the fact that she went to the Tulou to cause trouble that if she comes back, Amo will definitely have a hard time. Being humiliated is a small matter, but she is afraid that even her life will be in danger.

Lu Bu and Li Su grew up in Jiuyuan, which is next to a river. Every summer they would go swimming in the river. Both of them were very good at swimming. If Li Su had not been injured and fell into the water, he would most likely not have died.

Lu Bu suddenly felt that he was too incompetent. He needed A Mo to help him plan big things, but he couldn't solve small problems, and he couldn't even protect her.

That Mid-Autumn Festival at the shore of Jin Lake, I said that I would give Amo unrivaled dignity and would never let others insult or look down on her again. But she had been helping him all the way, and the person who might hurt her now was also brought to him by me.

He said that he had been waiting for her for seven years, waiting for her to grow up, but in fact it was A-Mo who had been waiting for him, waiting for him to get rid of Dong Qing, and he himself didn't know when he could get rid of Dong Qing.

With Amo's beauty and intelligence, she can marry anyone. Why should she endure Dong Qing's anger?

All along, it was me who had been causing her trouble, betraying her, and even working against her. If I hadn't stopped her that day at Beimang Mountain, she would have killed Dong Zhuo long ago, and there wouldn't have been all these troubles that followed.

He thought he could persuade Dong Zhuo, but the result was worse than in his dream.

Lu Bu embraced Zhang Mo in his arms and kissed the top of her head affectionately. His low, mellow, magnetic voice was tinged with a hint of coldness. "Don't worry, I won't let her return to Luoyang. I won't give her the chance to hurt you."

Zhang Mo seemed relieved and a smile appeared on her face. This man did not let her down after all.

The two hugged each other for a moment, and Zhang Mo asked, "Are you free now? I'll take you to see someone."

"who?"

Zhang Mo took his hand and said, "Come with me and you'll find out."

The two men left Lu's mansion and came to Zhang Mo's private residence in Luoyang. Du Ji, who was previously sent by Xu Huang to rob, was placed there.

In the living room, Du Ji looked at the man and woman in front of him with a depressed look on his face. "I wonder what you two have brought me here for?"

After sizing up the young man in his twenties, Lu Bu turned and asked Zhang Mo in a low voice, "Was this man kidnapped?"

This girl is indeed a real bandit, and she is good at killing and robbing people.

Zhang Mo said, "I originally asked Gong Ming to invite him, but he refused, so I had to do it myself."

"It seems that you don't even know him. How do you know that he is talented?"

"I heard that this man had quite good political achievements when he was the magistrate of Zheng County, so I kidnapped him."

"You even dare to rob officials?"

"He was no longer an official when he was robbed and was trying to escape to Jingzhou."

Seeing the two men whispering to each other, Du Ji's face became even more depressed. He asked again, "You two, what exactly do you want to do here?"

Since Amo said this person is talented, then he must be talented. Lu Bu said seriously, "I am Lu Bu. I have heard that you are talented and good at governing. I invited you here to ask you to serve the Han Dynasty."

"Lü Bu? Dong the thief's son-in-law!"

Du Ji's face was ashen at this moment. He flicked his sleeves and snorted coldly, "Dong the thief is doing evil things, and you Xiliang soldiers are even more vicious than tigers and wolves. I would rather die than serve you. You think I'll be loyal to Dong the thief? Dream on!"
